Exim mail server problem

Hey all,

Here is a tough one i could not solve... Is there a way to configure exim to send a copy of outgoing mail to a specified sys person on the network.

Please if i can get assistance on this one ASAP it would be much appreciated and i'll owe whoever has a solution the fastest a beer or dinner.

Thanks,
Mad_Tux

could be done by exim.filter-file!
perhaps the "deliver" command to forward a message to multiple addresses

...or other idea...to personal forwarding file --->/home/user/.forward (see exim.conf)

if $header_subject: contains "[NEWS]"
then
save /home/sysop/maill/NEWS #move to special folder
deliver <mailaddress> #forward to other address
endif

Make a file called exim.filter in the /etc/exim directory with the following line:
unseen deliver <email adress of the admin>

and in the main part of the exim.conf
system_filter = /etc/exim/exim.filter
system_filter_user = exim

THE file /etc/exim/exim.filter has to be owned by exim.

ALL email that comes in and out comes with a copy to the admin.
